REGION - MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SERVICES

Public Works and Government Services Canada is calling for proposals from engineers eligible to be registered to practice as Professional Engineers under licence in the Province of Ontario, to provide a range of mechanical engineering services in Eastern, Central and Western 
Ontario. 

The Request for Standing Offer (RFSO) may result in the authorization of up to three (3) Standing Offers for each of the regions listed above.  Proponents are asked to submit a single proposal in response to the RFSO.  Proposals must indicate the proponents interest in one, several or all regions.  Each resultant Standing Offer will be for a period of three (3) years.  Canada anticipates the total value of these standing offers to be approximately $3,000,000.00.

Examples of types of projects which will require Mechanical Engineering Services are investigations, designs and production of contract documents for: boilers and chillers; backflow prevention devices; forced air systems; greenhouse systems; laboratory systems modifications; growth chambers and compressed air systems.

The criteria used in the evaluation process will relate to previous achievements and experience of the firm; understanding of the scope of services; approach and methodology; and cost of service, and are fully detailed in the Solicitation document.

The RFSO will be a single submission process. Proposals will be evaluated for both technical content and price. The proposal rankings will be based on 90% for technical evaluation and 10% for price. Standing Offer particulars are described in the RFSO.

Firms should be able to demonstrate successful delivery of these services for a broad variety of projects over the last five (5) years. In general, the firm and its personnel will be evaluated on the basis of their demonstrated understanding of the scope of services, their approach and methodology to providing those services, the quality of their relevant experience in this area, as well as the cost of the provision of the services.

Firms interested in providing these services may order the Request for Standing Offer documents which are distributed through the Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS).  Standard Terms and Conditions for this procurement are incorporated by reference into, and form part of the Tender and Contract Documents.
